This would make no sense; the top and bottom of the map are always land that blocks you from going that way. If you assume that you're on a spherical Earth, you also need to assume that the regions around the north and south pole don't appear on the ingame map.
- dragonwriter 2y agoI agree that the assumption makes no sense, but the calculation offering an 80mi diameter elsewhere in the thread is, in fact, based on distributing the Earth's land area across the number of tiles in a (Civ 6 huge, IIRC) map, calculating the area of each tile based on that, and then calculating the distance across the tile based on the area.
